We have received some inquiries regarding compensation for those who deposited on the old Main Pool through Vector, Echidna, and Yield Yak. We want to clarify that we understand your concerns and we are committed to compensating your losses.
🧵 2/ Please note that you won't find this type of deposit record on our page, as the deposits are held in the contracts of those yield aggregators.
Therefore, we kindly ask for your patience while you wait for their claim page to be released.

Thanks everyone who supported us over the last few days! We’ve been trying our best to recover the losses and would like to give everyone a quick update: 2/ We are working on a plan to compensate the losses, please DO NOT repay your USP and realize the losses. It would be easier for us to manage the damage. Also, you don’t have to worry about liquidation as liquidation is paused, stability fee after the attack will not be counted

Dear Community,
We regret to inform you that our protocol was hacked recently, and the attacker took advantage of a flaw in our USP solvency check mechanism. They used a flashloan to exploit a logic error in the USP solvency check mechanism in the contract holding the collateral. 2/ Exploiter contract: snowtrace.io/address/0x67af…

#USP101 🔔 How does $USP #liquidation work?

Positions with a health rate lower than 1 are open to discounted collateral liquidation to prevent under-collateralization & protocol insolvency.

We use the dutch auction format, and portions can be filled partially. 🧵 2/ Anyone can trigger a smart contract check of all position health rates. If health rates are below 1, the auction process will be kickstarted. The kickstarter will receive a reward to compensate for their incurred gas fees and efforts.
